Alondra Park keeps residents close to recreation, retail and routes
Alondra Park, also known as El Camino Village, is one of California's South Bay communities. Living here means you're surrounded by destinations, like jobs in Torrance and recreation in Redondo Beach. Homebuyers find bungalows, ranch-style houses and condos alongside apartment complexes. Some of the schools here are within walking distance of home, and you can spend the day in the community's expansive park. For more experiences, Interstate 405 is nearby and connects to the rest of South Bay.
Alondra Park is best known for its spacious namesake park, anchored by a lake with an island.

Home prices span from the $400,000s to over $1 million
Renters and homebuyers can find options in Alondra Park. The area is full of apartment complexes, condo buildings and single-family homes with bungalow and ranch-style designs. Home prices tend to range from the lower $600,000s to around $1.3 million. Condos are usually cheaper, selling from the upper $400,000s to the lower $700,000s. “It's very much a Torrance feel without the Torrance price tag,” says broker associate Randy Porizek, who works with Century 21 Union Realty Co. “It has good elementary schools and houses similar to Torrance — in fact, the same builder did a lot of the homes. It's close to the beach, with a lot of parking."
Alondra Park's streets feature ranch-style homes.
Alondra Park is filled with rows of ranch-style homes for new buyers to chose from.

How to spend time outside in and around Alondra Park
The Alondra Community Regional Park has roughly 50 acres to explore, from the 36-hole golf course to the lake that's open for fishing. “I grew up going to that park. It's been a staple of that immediate area for a long time,” Porizek says. “The lake is one of the largest freshwater lakes in the area. There are fishing derbies there and updates like a skate park and a swimming pool.” The aquatic center has an in-ground pool and a splash pad near the skate park. When people want a day out, Manhattan Beach and Redondo Beach are about 5 miles away, so it's easy to spend the day on the shore.
Walk out over the ocean on the Manhattan Beach Pier and visit the Roundhouse Aquarium.

Alondra Park becomes hub of cultural celebration in July

Local community organizations and clubs performing traditional dances
Restaurants and everyday shops like Target are nearby
Alondra Park's restaurants are mostly along Prairie Avenue and Crenshaw Boulevard, the two main streets bordering the community.

Frogs Bakery, a popular spot to pick up French-style pastries and organic bread
Dat Moi Market and Superior Grocers are two busy grocery stores along Crenshaw Boulevard, but if you need more options, you're close to Ralphs and Target down Manhattan Beach Boulevard.

How residents reach Torrance, Redondo Beach and beyond
The community's location means residents are surrounded by major South Bay hubs. Interstate 405 runs nearby, offering a direct route to the Los Angeles International Airport. Most people drive to get around, especially to go about 5 miles for recreation in Redondo Beach or jobs in Torrance. The Laguna Dominguez Bike Trail cuts through Alondra Park, following the canal up near the Hawthorne Municipal Airport.
